      Thank You for the kind words, and for watching... I'm glad this video helped you out. Check out my video "Camping with a few Visitors " (BEAR ACTION) I show the Nemo Pressure Shower, and other setups. If you do watch and have questions about any other gear, feel free on asking. Take care.

    Great review, especially taking us from unpacking to final thoughts. I have Nemo tents and I'm now convinced this is the best privacy/shower tent for my Jeep overlanding needs (and 6'3" height) and will be be getting this now that I've seen your review.

      That's awesome, I'm glad it helped you making a decision on purchasing it. I'm totally satisfied with it. It's a great product. Thanks for watching, take care. Watch my Manker Flats Campground bear in camp video... I show it more.

    These have been out of stock for almost a year now… Just bought one today when they came back in stock after watching your video… Definitely seem a lot more durable than the flimsy ones you can buy on Amazon. Looking forward to taking this out to national forest road camping spots. Thanks for the great review, didn’t even know about the TP holder from the product photos!

      I appreciate it... it's a great shower, bathroom tent. You will enjoy it. I still have mine and it's in great shape. Check out my channel if you get a chance. I just went on a epic backpacking trip.

    Very nice review/product. That might be something I need to get for the wife to want to do a more rugged camp out we’re there isn’t a bath house. I would be interested to see it in full shower mode with the water batter etc hooked up.

    Funny, my tent also came without guy lines - I contacted Nemo, they told me that they are not included and that I have to buy them myself - great review nevertheless

    This is a thorough and great review. Thank you. I just received my heliopolis and my poles don't fit together properly and I was wondering if yours were the same? Mine didn't come with the reflective guy lines either. Other than that, I love it!

      Thank you... I haven't had any problems with the poles not fitting. I set it up every time like the video shows. You're the second person commenting about no guy lines. I called NEMO about not having guy lines, they sent them to me...

    Is there any holes near the top to pass an external shower head into? My shower head is attached to my trailer, so I need a hole to pass it down into. Also is there a place to hang the shower head?

    • @redwhiteblue7831
      @redwhiteblue7831  Před 5 lety

      There isn't any holes for a hose to come through, but you can leave a small opening on the zipper to feed the hose through. Yes it does have a shower head hook. Thanks for watching. Check out my "Manker Flats Campground" (BEAR) video, I show the tent a little more, and the Nemo pressure shower. Take care.

    good video, however how long did you wait to pack it up after shower use? I feel it would be difficult to dry even if you wait a day.

      RedWhite&Blue 78 I don't understand why they use steel poles for something that is going to be getting wet. You would think they would use aluminum poles with non metal shock cord inside the poles. Especially if you consider the price they charge for this.
